That's just one of the countless lessons in ruthlessness we've learned from watching Frank Underwood climb to the top of Washington in the Emmy-winning series House Of Cards.

The acclaimed Netflix drama has returned for its fifth season this week, and Kevin Spacey's merciless President couldn't come back at a better time for Americans.

Mostly because we're living under the rule of President Donald Trump — who, while not nearly as cunning as Frank Underwood, is apparently just as sinister and hungry for power.

Underwood has committed some frightening acts over the course of the series so far — murder, domestic surveillance, and starting a war to name a few — but he still isn't quite as terrifying as the real life nightmare that is the Big Cheeto.

See the eerie parallels between the ultimate political anti-hero and our actual POTUS (below)!

According to a new report from the New York Times, evidence shows that members of Trump's campaign and other Trump associates had repeated contacts with senior Russian intelligence officials in the year before the election.

The intelligence agencies then investigated whether the Trump campaign was colluding with the Russians on the hacking or in other election-meddling efforts, but found no evidence of collaboration.

However, intelligence and law enforcement agencies were still alarmed by the intercepts, partly because most of the contact was

The notices began to appear at around 3:45 p.m. EST and came complete with some heavy wording, for instance:

"Remembering Mark Zuckerberg. We hope people who love Mark will find comfort in the things others share to remember and celebrate his life. Learn more about memorialized accounts and the legacy contact setting on Facebook."

Yikes!

The company hasn't explained just what caused the glitch — but after the apocalyptic week we just had, it seems like a social media rapture couldn't come at a better time.

See what the affected users had to say about the eerie anomaly (below):

According to lawyer Monique Pressley, these charges against the 78-year-old "violate an express agreement" where Cosby "would never be prosecuted with respect to the allegations of sexual assault made by complainant Andrea Constand."

Back in 2006, the disgraced actor and Constand agreed to a civil settlement after she initially sued him.

According to Cosby's counsel, authorities agreed to a "non-prosecution agreement… for the express purpose of inducing Mr. Cosby to testify fully in Ms. Constand's civil litigation against him."

As we previously reported, Britney Spears' baby daddy has requested an increase in his $20K a month child support stipend. While it's said that Godney isn't THRILLED at the request, she's letting her poppa negotiate a deal with KFed.

And it appears that negotiations are well under way, though Mr. Spears is NOT impressed with his former son-in-law!
